BETHESDA, Md., Nov. 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ChatGPT's answers to nearly three-quarters of drug-related questions reviewed by pharmacists were incomplete or wrong — in some cases providing inaccurate responses that could endanger patients, according to a study presented at the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists Midyear Clinical Meeting Dec. 3-7 in Anaheim, California. When asked to cite references, the artificial intelligence program also generated fake citations to support some responses.

Key Points: 
  • Pharmacists involved in the study first researched and answered 45 questions, and each answer was reviewed by a second investigator.
  • These responses served as the standard against which the responses generated by ChatGPT were to be compared.
  • Researchers excluded six questions because there was a lack of literature to provide a data-driven response, leaving 39 questions for ChatGPT to answer.
  • For the other 29 questions, responses generated by ChatGPT did not directly address the question (11) or were inaccurate (10), and/or incomplete (12).
